As a seasoned gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of wrestling, I can’t help but feel disheartened by the latest developments surrounding Vince McMahon. The allegations against him are far more serious than any storyline WWE has ever concocted, and it’s hard not to feel a sense of betrayal.
The ongoing lawsuit accusing Vince McMahon of sex trafficking and sexual abuse persists, with new developments surfacing in January when former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a suit against McMahon, John Laurinaitis (former Head of Talent Relations at WWE), and the company itself. The lawsuit claimed that McMahon had sexually abused her and trafficked her to other WWE employees over multiple years. This accusation, along with previous sexual misconduct allegations, ultimately led to McMahon’s departure from WWE in March, as these claims had been eroding his position within the company for two years prior. In May, the Department of Justice initiated an investigation into the charges leveled against McMahon.
Janel Grant Requests WWE Waive NDAs in Vince McMahon Case
The latest in Janel Grant’s sex trafficking lawsuit against Vince McMahon.
According to information provided to the Associated Press, Grant’s legal representatives are advocating for the WWE to release ex-employees from their confidentiality clauses concerning McMahon.
If WWE and Endeavor genuinely intend to cut ties with Vince McMahon and the harmful work environment he fostered, their leaders should have no issue granting former WWE employees relief from their Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), according to Grant’s attorney Ann Callis. This action would be a crucial move toward restoring a company that has hidden sexual misconduct and human trafficking for decades.
Curtis Vogel, a spokesperson for McMahon, declined to comment.
Since last spring, McMahon has been under scrutiny due to sexual misconduct accusations. The allegations stem from McMahon’s use of company funds for settlements related to multiple affairs over the years. By July 2022, it was disclosed that four women had signed non-disclosure agreements with McMahon. Meanwhile, Grant initiated his lawsuit in January.
Over the summer, Grant’s lawsuit against McMahon and others has largely been under the radar. As part of an ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice, the three defendants (McMahon, John Laurinaitis, and WWE) have attempted to move this case from federal court to private arbitration.
In a recent declaration, Mr. Laurinaitis supports Mr. McMahon in publicly stating that the sexual abuse and coercion allegations made by Ms. Grant in her complaint are entirely baseless. According to his filing statement in May, my client will collaborate with Mr. McMahon in refuting these false accusations in the appropriate setting, arbitration. This shift in stance comes after two months where his lawyer described him as a victim of McMahon’s power and control.
Some elements of this ongoing lawsuit are featured in Netflix’s six-episode series titled Mr. McMahon, which delves into the life and professional journey of the former WWE CEO, Vince McMahon. Initially, the series aimed to explore the dichotomy between Vince McMahon the individual and Mr. McMahon the on-screen WWE character. However, the sexual misconduct allegations against him in 2022 and 2024 have expanded the scope of this character analysis. In response to the series, McMahon’s team has stated that it merely touches upon the surface of his alleged criminal activities.
